DANZA&DANZA International Magazine September/October Vorige editie

After fifty years, John Neumeuer is set to leave Hamburg Ballet, the company he has indelibly forged with his style and poetics. We met the great American choreographer and his Italian Principals dancers: Silvia Azzoni, with her husband Olexandr Ryabko, Jacopo Bellussi and Alessandro Frola. The special insight into the great master’s work is completed with a look at his precious Collection on the history of dance and ballet.
The end of summer brings with it a new wave of festivals: in Italy but also in Europe. Not to be missed, among others, are the appointments with the Biennale de la Danse in Lyon, the Festival Aperto and Torinodanza, which opens with the Sydney Dance Company engaged in a work by its director Rafael Bonachela, whom we interviewed.
Also in this issue a feature deals with the new generation on stage bringing hopefulness and strenght into dance making, with a spirit of rebellion and fresh harmony.
We also reviewed summer's major debuts in Italy and abroad.
